Floating angelically through canyons or emerging from bodies of water, there are three in total, modelled on the three Triforce Goddesses from Hyrule's past; Farore, Nayru and Din, whose names now become Farosh (green), Naydra (blue) and Dinraal (red).

Track these fearsome - and relatively peaceful - creatures down and use the updrafts created by their movements to soar up around their bodies. From here, shoot specific parts of them to sear off specific items, which can then be used to create the most powerful elixirs in the game, or to fetch a pretty penny at Kilton's Fang & Bone.

The four types of loot you can get are Horn Shards (head/horn itself), Fang Shards (mouth/teeth), Claws (leg/claw) and Scales (rest of body).

Be sure to have a decent supply of stamina so you can stay in the air longest, as well as maximise the time you can trigger Link's super slow-mo state, allowing you to fire off a number of arrows before time restores itself.
